    Busted! Bloggers Force Huffington Post to Retract Ridiculous ’17%’ McDonald’s Wage Cl

    Again - "you're", as in "you are." "Your" is possessive. I also get wound around the axle with "its" vice "it's"; and "they're, there, and their".... Sorry, couldn't help myself.

    Yup. Why all the question marks?

    Murphy's Law on the BB

    Or, after you've resolved not to participate in a thread, but you catch a post that *must* be addressed -- the thread will be closed just before you reply....

    Symbol in Kazakhstan

    Maybe for you and me; but remember, we're talking the Soviet Union. There wasn't much stock placed in religious themes, so in their minds the star was a representation of the nation, not Satan. That doesn't mean they weren't influenced by Satan; just that they didn't recognize the influence.

    Am I telling the truth, or lying?

    It's not a simple question. And it's been answered fully: Without knowing whether you intended to deceive or not, no one can answer whether you were lying or just made a mistake. In all honesty, without knowing which thread this actually started in, and not knowing the full context of the...

    Unrighteous judgement?

    8th grade English. Got a paper back from the teacher marked "99". No marks on the paper. I asked her what was wrong with it; she looked it over and said, "Nothing." I asked, "so why didn't I get 100?" She replied, "because no one gets 100." I figured, if I do so well that nothing's wrong, but I...

    Some Say Obama Is a Marxist. Is he?

    "was not already in place when he entered office" - interesting choice of words. Almost made me decide not to respond; and then I thought, well, that particular choice of wording is kind of like asking "when did you stop beating your wife?" You see, if Obama has perpetuated those policies, then...

    Would You Join His Church?

    I thought the opening question was, "would you join that church?" I'm actually in the middle of making this decision. I was down to a choice between two churches; but then there was a split in one of them, and the pastor of the other has proven to be heavily influenced by Peter Ruckman. The...

    New Doctor Who

    Seriously, this is going to be a hard one for me. I'm not getting past the character Mr. Capaldi played in "Torchwood: Children of Men".... We'll see.

    Busted! Bloggers Force Huffington Post to Retract Ridiculous ’17%’ McDonald’s Wage Cl

    SERIOUSLY?!?!? DID YOU NOT READ THE ARTICLE? How can you NOT see that the original premise was fatally flawed? How can you NOT see the impact on the franchise owners (who make up 80% of McDonald's stores)? You are the worst kind of economist: you make decisions based on the here-and-now...

    Obama: Lower Corporate Taxes; Keep Small Business High

    http://m.weeklystandard.com/blogs/obama-top-tax-rate-should-be-28-corporations-40-small-business_742312.html How does keeping small businesses at almost 40% while reducing corporate rates to 28% make any sense? What about all those 99%ers that were so anti-corporation, and causing so much...

    Gov't Knows Best? White House creates 'nudge squad' to shape behavior

    I'm unaware of a "nudge squad" in Great Britain, but will certainly look that up for verification. The other, less desirable term, is "thought police."

    Do Righter Cynthia McClaskey Attacks Bible and Baptists

    I believe the BB rules don't allow for exceptions. If we allow one person to post links and advertise, then we must allow all, regardless of whether we like what they've written.

    Zimmy Rescues Family: Criticized by "You Know Who?"

    Don't know if you're talking about Righteous or me; but neither of us was talking to you, just about you. His apology was sincerely to those of us who thought he was stepping across a line, not to you.

    Zimmy Rescues Family: Criticized by "You Know Who?"

    Didn't offend me at all; and I don't think you're racist or any of the other garbage that individual likes to throw out. I think he's just baiting folks for jollies.

    Zimmerman assists in car accident

    Yours isn't an observation; it's supposition and speculation. But you're going to believe what you want to believe, and continue to berate the rest of for being un-Christ-like for behaving the same way you're behaving now.
